Abstract
An ejector for electric vehicle charging connectors is provided. An ejector can be configured to be secured on the inside of the charging port of an EV and to automatically eject or push the charging connector from the charging port. The ejector may include a pusher assembly that selectively extends through an opening in a housing forming the socket of the charging port. The ejector may also include a driver assembly that forces the pusher assembly through the opening to eject the charging connector while allowing the pusher assembly to be freely withdrawn when the charging connector is inserted.
